It adds that extra little bit of history to the piece.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis is one of my favourite Bill Tice prints. Pieces with this particular pattern are tough to find and this little jumpsuit is super special. It is only the second one I have ever seen and the first is one that I sold several years ago in the shop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHis easy-to-wear and glamorous pieces have been worn by countless celebrities for the red carpet and events. Every girl that has bought one of his pieces through me has absolutely loved them. This jumpsuit is exceptional example of his work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is one of those great little pieces that you will only ever find with vintage. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThe jumpsuit is made out of a light as air scarf weight tissue silk that is printed with an oversized print on a soft pink-peach base. The fabric choice makes it extremely comfortable to wear and it drapes and falls incredibly on the body. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt weighs ounces and when you put it on it feel like you are wearing almost nothing. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe front is a single piece of fabric that is piped around the edges. The piping extends out into ties that you tie behind the neck to hold the halter in place. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis leaves the entire back and sides completely bare and exposed. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe waist is detailed with a wide band that has his signature top stitching and a bit of padding inside the layers to give it some support and detail. I love how it buttons with the little silk covered buttons at the back. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eFrom there it curves over the hips and into long pant legs that are cut wide and full through the legs. The pants are extraordinary. As they reach the bottom hem they are cinched back in and gathered through the seam at the bottom. This creates a balloon \/ harem effect that is just fantastic. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnd it has pockets. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt is extraordinarily well done and very sexy yet so easy and comfortable to wear. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe jumpsuit is unlined and buttons to close at the back of the waist with three silk covered buttons. There is one hidden snap in the opening under that. It ties at the back of the neck and is gathered in at the cuffs. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTagged a vintage Bill Tice 8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBust: 16\" across at its widest point from side to side\u003cbr\u003eTop seam at waist: 14\" flat across from side seam to side seam\u003cbr\u003eBottom Seam at waist: 13.5\" flat across from side seam to side seam\u003cbr\u003eHips: to 24\" flat across from side seam to side seam\u003cbr\u003eBodice: adjustable with the tie but approx 13\" from neck to top seam of the band at waist\u003cbr\u003ePants: 47\" from the top of the band at the waist to hem.
